intoxicating liquor. 1. Any person who shall be injured in person,
property, means of support, or otherwise by any intoxicated person, or
by reason of the intoxication of any person, whether resulting in his
death or not, shall have a right of action against any person who shall,
by unlawful selling to or unlawfully assisting in procuring liquor for
such intoxicated person, have caused or contributed to such
intoxication; and in any such action such person shall have a right to
recover actual and exemplary damages.

2. In case of the death of either party, the action or right of action
given by this section shall survive to or against his or her executor or
administrator, and the amount so recovered by either a husband, wife or
